We provide support and information to those affected by brain & spine problems

Charity Registration No. 1098528

Story

People keep asking me where they can donate for my marathon running, and I've been telling them I'm just doing it for fun because I love running and challenging myself. But a marathon is a really big thing so I've decided to raise some money as well.

I've picked the Brain and Spine Foundation because they provide excellent information to people suffering from all sorts of neurological conditions. Everything from migranes, to tumors, to epilepsy.

When I was 16 I suffered from a brain haemorrhage caused by an arteriovenous malformation so I can appreciate the work they do in helping people with strange rare conditions. Also as a librarian I value work the charity do in providing high quality and reliable information to people.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
